Today, Sept. 24, is National Voter Registration Day and Travis County’s army of nearly 3,000 volunteer deputy registrars will be out in force to make the most of the day. The goal of this registration drive is to bring the number of registered voters in Travis County to above 800,000, which “would mark the highest number of registered voters ever in Travis County,” according to a press release. If you’ve moved recently and haven’t re-registered, or if you are registering to vote for the first time, you’ll find conveniently located voter registration stations all over the county. Here are a few choice locations:
